Hi friends! Tonight is Wordy Wednesday, but for the sake of me going to make dinner before midnight, I’m just going to introduce this list as “What I’m listening to lately” and bring some of this music the attention it deserves.
She’s Enough- Atmosphere (I gotta love everything this boy does)
Feel it all around- Washed out (It’s the theme song to Portlandia, for those of you watching along on Netflix with us, and its awesome).
Lonely Boy- The Black Keys (this one runs the risk of making you drive way too damn fast)
On the Rebound- Floyd Cramer (It’s in the opening credits to An Education, an instrumental, and its so fun)
Somebody that I used to know- Gotye (This song has an odd rhythm throughout the background, sounds kind of like hot chip or something to me, but its interesting to me)
Pickin’ up the pieces- Fitz and the Tantrums (because I don’t know if this song is retro or just sounds like it)
Cat Scratch Fever- Ted Nugent (Okay, so the Nuge is nothing new to me, but I’ve been listening to this song every day for a week and totally rocking out like a psycho. Go with it).
…and my absolute new favorite: Parted Ways by the Heartless Bastards.
(This song is a freakin’ happy shot of espresso to me for some reason , and I can’t stop listening to it.)
What music have you been listening to lately? Old or new, radio jingles, what’s been stuck in your eardrums?

I’ll have to look into some of these tunes. I know some of them, but not all.
Lately I’ve been listening to 100 Monkeys, Jack White’s new single and Selena Gomez. Yes, that’s right, I said Selena Gomez. Girl knows how to pick a good pop song.
Hey, I don’t judge. I haven’t heard her music but I do love a good pop song 🙂
I’ll listen to them, it’s always refreshing to have something new playing coming out from your earphones. Currently I can’t stop listening to Feel so Close by Calvin Harris.
I’ll check it out!
I’ll check these out (the ones I haven’t heard, anyway)!
Lately, Joe and I have been on an Old Music kick—we sit around and take turns playing songs…”how ’bout this one?”
He is 5 years older than me so it’s fun to see the difference in what he was listening to in high school!
that’s fun- man-go-round is 9 years older than me so his music is slightly more in the “grunge” era than my teen angst music haha
hate to admit this but anything hokey pokey or wheels on the bus related is about it.
my teenager did leave me his iPod loaded with techno but thats about it!

I love techno- the better to dance to!
I LOVE… ‘Move like Jagger’! (Adam Lavine)
and ‘Marry Me’ by Bruno Mars.
I think I’ve only seen the glee version of move like jagger haha- I’ll have to check it out!
I have been hearing a lot about The Black Keys. I must check…them? out lol.
Lately I have been listening to a lot of Bebel Gilberto/Samba/Bossa Nova. I guess I am subconsciously preparing for Carnival?
GREAT picks!!!
